Gaulson Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Thinking the time is approaching for me to sell it, I'm holding onto it but have no money spare. I just can't bring myself to even start preparing for the sale it makes me very sad :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stants Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Threw a bucket of water over her 1st thing after last night's wash, cracked on and cut polished and waxed, then it rained, the fumes must have got to me as decided to crack on doing my van too [emoji15] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyc Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Thinking the time is approaching for me to sell it, I'm holding onto it but have no money spare. I just can't bring myself to even start preparing for the sale it makes me very sad :( Wash it, polish it, caress her curves and admire her beauty. I half expected mine to cost me an arm and a !Removed! but fuel costs aside ( which aren't even horrific at 30mpg) she's wanted nothing but wear and tear stuff (tyres, oil & filters, now needs cv boots being done tomorrow). And it's done all its depreciation and may even soon start rising in value. It's a sensible all weather car with a naughty side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandals Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Took mine around blair drummond safari park... was squeaky bum time when driving through the monkey exhibit... thankfully it was quite cold today so they weren't particularly active!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyc Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Took my car to the garage to fit new cv boots, give it an oil and filter. Apparently one of the drop links on the front arb has collapsed (would explain the body roll). Also bought a daily so the scoob can be loved and enjoyed rather than be a work hack.

GeoffLeggy Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Are you using a credit card piece of plastic? I go slow putting pressure on with plastic as you peel back. Def don't try large portions. Before you peel off the top layer slowly go over it with the card listening for bubble blips. It's easier to try and force them out before you remove the top layer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jhosk1981 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Yes, using a credit card, but have ordered a proper squeegee tool, maybe it will make the job easier....little bits done....just two Big "Swooshes" left and the stars. Hopefully be ready for Japfest also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rizmo Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Driving up M1 this morning and one heck of a bang from what sounded like a boulder hitting the car. Spent the afternoon checking all over the bodywork for a dent, but found nothing. Probably something flipped up by front wheel, and hit the underneath, somewhere. That will wait till next month, when it goes in for service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G800F using Tapatalk Float it on, mix up some soapy water and spray (or drip) it onto the car then place the vinyl on and it won't stick until you squeegee the water from behind. No creases or bubbles either :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
